The GRINCH took over....
Once upon a time I used to love the holidays. Christmastime sparkled like some kind of magical diamond, making December my favorite month. Allthat good will, cheer and twinkling lights...how I used to love it so. I don’t know what happened to that (or maybe the better questions is what happened to me?). All I know is that what was once a beautiful thing has now become such a dreaded UGLY monster...a BEAST that has devoured all the beauty and true meaning from this holiday...where EXCESS and GLUTTONY are the words of the day...$PEND, $PEND, $PEND....until there is nothing left, until all your credit cards are maxed out, until you are overdrawn in your account...and you still forgot to get so and so a gift. I think I officially LOATHE the holidays. The thought that I have to go into debt just to buy bullshit gifts for bullshit people that I barely tolerate to begin with and who do NOT need anything more and wont even appreciate what I got them in the first place...UGH. It...just...drives me INSANE. To date, I have spent over $500!! And I still haven’t gotten everyone on my list!! Do you know how DISGUSTING that is. Do you know what I could’ve done with that money instead??? Christmas is long overdue for a MAJOR overhaul. We need to get back to simplicity. Like sitting around the fireplace singing Christmas carols(don’t be surprised, I used to love doing that), watching Christmas movies (Home Alone 2 never gets old and all the Rankin & Bass clay-nimation movies), drinking hot cocoa (or in my case, some kinda liqueur or fancy shit) and calling it a day. That’s it. Fuck the gifts. I don’t know about you, but I never seem to get what I LIKE, WANT or NEED anyways (Dear SantaMofo*, can you stuff a hot NAKED man under the tree, I DIDNT THINK SO!), so what’s the fuckin point?! Ugh. Most of us do not really need any more new shiny gifts, do we. If u wanna buy gifts, buy something for the homeless or the needy (yes I do care about the homeless and would much rather spend Christmas with them than my own family-TRUTH). Or if you wanna be selfish (if the shoe fits, im wearing it-MORE TRUTH) collect money from everyone in the family, pool it together, and go on a family cruise. NO GIFTs. That’s my Christmas rant for now. I CANNOT WAIT till January!!!! Bring on the new year!!!!
* seriously tho..how hard can it be to kidnap sum unsuspecting naughty hot guy, and tying him to my bed so that I can teach him a lesson...I mean..I’ll let him go...eventually....like after new year..promise.
